Along the corridor are luxurious European wall lamps. The man approaches with flickering face, who seems to be walking through the ancient palace.
Yan Hua opens her eyes suddenly. His style is so like the man who tried to take her away.
“Aren’t you hungry?” The handsome face is exposed in the light, with his eyes inquiring about something.
In an instant, Yan Hua thinks her eyes have made a mistake.
“Yan Hua?” Lang Ruoxian, finding her dumb-founded, sees the fridge behind her, “I will tell them to prepare more food for the pregnant. Please do without it tonight.”
The food in the fridge is not suitable for Yan Hua now. And she does not know how to cook meals.
“That’s all right,” Yan Hua shakes her head, believing he is demanding her not to have the food.
Nevertheless, Lang Ruoxian just passes her and takes the ingredients while fastening the apron around his waist, “I will cook a bowl of noodles for you.”
Yan Hua is surprised. But when she returns to normal state, the man starts to cut onions, whose cutting skills reveal he often cooks in the kitchen.
“Is there anything you don’t want to eat?” Lang Ruoxian, with his back to her, says something ambiguous in the sound of the boiling water.
“No.”
There is nothing she doesn’t eat. However, she is quite critical about the food taste. In the eyes of Yan Hua, the house maid in He Family doesn’t cook delicious food. But she never says it to anyone.
After all, she is not positioned to assess the cooking skill of other people because she doesn’t cook at all.
“You are scared?” Lang Ruoxian turns to her and Yan Hua can see his exquisite face…as pretty as her face.
“I am not accustomed,” Yan Hua is honest.
The eyes of Lang Ruoxian flicker, who makes one step forward suddenly, “You are not accustomed to the position of Young Mistress, or to living alone?”
The man is less than one arm away from her. His eyes become darker and cold atmosphere comes to her. Yan Hua feels shivering.
“You...”
“The noodle is ready.”
The dark shadow disappears and it becomes warm and bright. The bowl of noodle cooked in chicken soup is placed on the table, with a few pieces of beef and vegetable.
“Thank you...” Yan Hua returns to the normal and eats the noodle, “Delicious...” Really?
Lang Ruoxian raises his eyebrow, “I will believe you if your expression also tells the same thing.”
“At least, your cooking is better than mine,” Yan Hua smiles, “I even don’t know how to make it ripe.”
She feels her answer is flawless, but who knows...
“Well, you don’t have to eat it,” the slender hands show up in front of her.
Yan Hua is totally surprised, she sees the man throwing the noodles into the trash bin.
“Uncle Lee,” the man makes an internal call. A few minutes later, Uncle Lee brings a house maid in a hurry.
“Sorry, Madam Hua. It is my fault. From tomorrow on, we will prepare night snack for you,” Uncle Lee apologizes and asks the house maid to cook something for Yan Hua.
Yan Hua grips her fist. On her first night in the home, she asks them to cook for her in the midnight. What would they think of her?
“Childe Ruoxian,” Uncle Lee, seeing Lang Ruoxian is also there, thinks he is also hungry.
Lang Ruoxian turns to look at Yan Hua, “Well, please go to bed after you get full. I heard insufficient sleep is not good for the baby.”
His eyes just float away from her belly, producing again the cold atmosphere. Yan Hua bites her lips and watches the man straightly.
“Thanks, I will pay attention to that.”
She says these words in a way neither humble nor pushy, even with some sense of challenge.
Lang Ruoxian laughs and leaves the kitchen in big steps.
The house maid in Lang Family does cook very well, at least to the taste of Yan Hua. She eats a bowl of wonton with three fresh ingredients in the contents.
When going back to the bedroom, she passes the sitting room and is surprised to find Lang Ruoxian is still there, seeming to be talking with someone on the phone.
“Are you full?” Seeing her coming, the man hangs the phone and asks in a polite and smiling way.
Yan Hua shows the weird expression, feeling this guy changes his attitude so much.
She nods and makes no reply, ready to go upstairs and return to her room.
After walking a few steps, she hears the steps and knows Lang Ruoxian is following her. They just climb to the stairs one after another.
“Mr. Lang. I am now your sister-in-law. Is it OK for you to go to my bedroom in such a late hour?” Yan Hua turns suddenly and asks him on the second floor.
Lang Ruoxian looks at this cold-look woman, raising his mouth corner, “You misunderstand me. I am going back to my own room.”
Then he walks to the room beside the bedroom of Yan Hua, pushing open the door.
“By the way, since you said you are my sister-in-law, it is much too strange to call me Mr. Lang,” Lang Ruoxian smiles in the attractive way when Yan Hua shows her embarrassed expression.
“Call me Brother, or Ruoxian if you are willing to do so.”
The first day in Lang Family is over. In the following half a month and more, she never sees Lang Ruoxian again. Now she most cares about her baby in the womb. After that, she wants very much to know if Lang Ruoxian is the man who kidnapped her on that day.“Uncle Lee said you have very good appetite,” Lang Hongyue says to her in the car when she is taking Yan Hua to receive the prenatal medical examination.Yan Hua’s hands feel her own face. Yes, she does have very good appetite.Now she not only has access to night snacks. Even more, a dedicated house maid in Lang Family cooks for her. Now it seems she has a round face?“That’s good,” Lang Hongyue is quite satisfied, “You should sleep well and eat well, just for the baby. Well, has my nephew caused any trouble to you?”Lang Hongyue came back yesterday from another city on business. But she often called Yan Hua. Probably she was afraid that Yan Hua might run away or m
After learning Lang Ruoxian tried to get something from the doctor, Lang Hongyue is indignant. At night, she runs to the room of Yan Hua to alert her.“Look, what I said proves to be right. He would harm you. Actually, he would harm the baby in your womb soon or later.”Lang Hongyue walks to and pro, looking quite upset. She becomes angrier when seeing Yan Hua still watching TV indifferently.“Did you hear me?”Yan Hua looks at her, “I heard you. But who can stop him from doing anything? We live in the same house.”“Damn!” Lang Hongyue says in a cursing way, “My father said you should live at home. Otherwise I would not bring you back home.”Yan Hua remains silent. She wonders why Lang Hongyue brought her home even though she realizes the importance of her baby. Now she understands why.“Don’t be afraid. He doesn’t dare to do it at home,” Lang Hongyue taps on her shoulder, “But never stay with
“Lang Jia and Lang Jie will stay at home for two months,” Lang Ruoxian loosens his tie, sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed.What a picture it is!Yan Hua finds two young maids cleaning the wall picture while looking in this direction in a sneaking way.“Oh.” Her eyes come back and show dim expression, “It seems Lang Jie does not like me.”Lang Ruoxian half closes his eyes, “You want her to like you?”“I just hope to live in peace with her. After all, we live in the same house,” Yan Hua looks at him, “Isn’t it right?”“It seems you have got completely accustomed to the life here,” Lang Ruoxian gives the indifferent smile, “Lang Jia is just a young girl. I think you can deal with her easily, my sister-in-law.”The man has friendly smile and tone, but...Clearly, Yan Hua sees the mocking and pleasure at the misfortune of other people.“...I go upstairs,” she knows
Lang Jie comes home not only for holiday, but also to celebrate her birthday. As a member of the wealthiest family in G City, she has friends from either wealthy or high-ranking families.“I heard your second sister-in-law is a divorced lady,” Lang Jie and her friends are receiving facial beautification in the beauty salon. They show a keen interest in Yan Hua.“Ask her to the birthday party on the weekend,” one of them says, “So that we can see the modern Cinderella.”Having facial mask on her face, Lang Jie says with straightened mouth, “She is now most looked after as a pregnant woman.”“We won’t kill her,” another girl says in a despising way, “You can’t even handle a widow?”The others laugh and say the same words. Lang Jie, throwing away the facial mask, sits up, “OK. But don’t do too much to her. Otherwise my mom will criticize me heavily.”Yan Hua does not know she has been sold by Lang Jie. It is
The VIP lounge looks dim, but nothing unacceptable is found in it. Yan Hua changes her attitude towards the party of upper-class girls.But, it would be better if they didn’t look at her as if she was a monkey or ask some upsetting questions.“Did you really get drunk and go to bed with Second Young Master of Lang Family?”“Did you really forget everything?”“Did you secretly feed him with philter?”“There is really such a stupid woman who goes to bed for free with a man. Ha ha.”People around her either look despising or mocking. Before Yan Hua says something, Lang Jie opens her mouth, “You have promised not to ask embarrassing questions. Why are you still asking? ”“Don’t stand around her. After all, I am the one celebrating the birthday,” Lang Jie pulls them away from Yan Hua. They start to drink and play finger-guessing game.Yan Hua sits in the corner and rolls her eyes.
Guo Xiaotong looks at the woman in front of her with complicated eyes. She is shocked that after leaving He Family, the woman lives better instead of languishing.The woman wears a simple and generous long green dress. Guo Xiaotong recognizes that although the dress is household, it is a limited edition of a famous brand that she can’t even get it.“That’s what you’re capable of!” Guo Xiaotong, suppressing her jealousy, says tartly, “You are really lucky.”Yan Hua just smiles and says: “Thanks to you.”“You!” Guo Xiaotong screams, “You bitch!”Seeing her in such a state of exasperation, Yan Hua calms down. Now she is no longer being bullied, Guo Xiaotong doesn’t have the courage to provoke her.“Pay attention to your wording.” Yan Hua turns and tries to leave.Now is not the time to deal with Guo Xiaotong, everything is waiting for her baby to be born safely.“Yan Hua, stop!” Obvi
After washing her face, Lang Jie makes up again and then starts a new round of playing finger-guessing game and drinking. A girl suddenly runs to her and says aloud.“Lang Jie, your brother-in-law is seen by someone at the door with a man.”Looking up at her, Lang Jie notices that she is not familiar with the girl. She only remembers that the girl’s family seems to run a hotel. Lang Jie is a little angry. Is this girl shouting so loudly for fear that others will not hear her?“Let’s go and have a look!” Others are really excited, a few of them have already run out.Two girls who have a good relationship with Lang Jie lift her up and say, “What’s wrong with that woman? Didn’t she know that everything she did would be in the papers?”No one pays attention to Guo Xiaotong, who is walking at their back and beaming with success. Just as a group of people run to the door, they see a man opening the car door for Yan Hua.
“Ruoxian, Hua!” Lang Hongyue looks at them and tries to see something between them.Yan Hua says without expression, “I am tired, I’ll go back to my room to have a rest.”Lang Hongyue, “...”“What’s the matter with her?” It was the first time that Yan Hua had such an attitude since she entered into Lang Family. Is it Lang Ruoxian who said something to her?“Maybe she was frightened...” Lang Ruoxian smiles slightly, “You know, she shouldn’t have been to that kind of party.”What Lang Hongyue hates most about this nephew is his polite attitude. He is always indifferent and no one can find faults with him.What’s more ridiculous is that many people in the company think that Lang Ruoxian is courteous and handsome. Are they blind...?“Why were you there?” Lang Hongyue is more concerned about why he took Yan Hua home.“Just meeting my friends.” Lang Ruoxian answers her.Lan
